Had a lovely evening at The Argyle Jam last night with Nikki MacLeod and @zosiasamosia.bsky.social. First time playing at a jam session in about 15 years. Some fudgy notes coming out of that saxophone, but it's nice to be gradually getting back into playing some jazz again after a long long time

Thank you so much Kit! That's so kind of you to say 😊
What an excellent evening at the queer data showcase! Thanks to @kevinguyan.bsky.social for organising it. A really interesting mix of queer research, archival engagement and a bit of saxophone
A tall white woman in a floral short playing saxophone in front of a PowerPoint presentation. Black text on a white background reads: The data was hard to gather, but it tells a story about wh… it’s… trans people whose gender is recategorised… there… a way to tell those stories.
The Queer Data showcase is fantastic. Lots of excellent funny, thought-provoking presentations and my highlight so far has been
@katherinewyers.bsky.social with improv sax accompanying her story of the emotional toll of queer fieldwork.
I'm genuinely excited that tomorrow we'll welcome Dr. Jamie Budnick from Cornell University to speak about gender and sex categories and how they relate LGBTQ civil rights. Wed, 11 Jun 2025 4pm-5pm, Edinburgh Futures Institute. I'll be chairing the session. www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/no-differe...
